Nope. With the Ant installation (binary, I've never had to build Ant
myself, yet) you get a fully operational optional.jar with has a usable
JUnit task as soon as you have junit.jar in %ANT_HOME%/lib.

Building FOP (HEAD) without "embedded" Ant goes like this:
- Install Ant binary distribution
   - set the ANT_HOME environment variable
   - extend you PATH variable with %ANT_HOME%\bin
- Download JUnit and put the junit-<version>.jar into %ANT_HOME%\lib (if
  you want to run the testcases)
- Download FOP from CVS
- go to the xml-fop directory and run "ant" or "./ant.sh"
